Not much other than basking in the endless activities that pop up for those three perfect days at the end of May. As things tend to go here in Nashville, there’s an endless list of possibilities so we’ve tried to narrow it down to some of our favorites.

While it can be easy to ignore a mess in the moment, continually living in chaos adds a significant amount of stress to your life. If it feels like you have no time to organize your home, think about all of the minutes you’ve spent looking for your keys, your child’s field trip permission slip, or a bill that needed to be paid.

Whether you have acreage to spare or your yard could be compared to a postage stamp, small gardens boast advantages for all. The low startup cost, water usage, and general maintenance make it a smart decision for anyone who wants to try out their green thumb without the costs and commitment that come with a large garden. Not to mention the delicious and beautiful fruits (or veggies, or flowers) of your labor.

Raised Bed Garden

Raised beds can be built in an afternoon to fit your specific space and plant needs or pre-cut kits can be purchased at your local hardware store for quick and tool-free assembly. Cedar is best for this project for its rot- and insect-resistant qualities. Be sure your bed is placed in a level, weed-free area prior to…

Clean your gutters

This is a chore you just can’t skip. Gutters need to be cleaned at least once a year, and more if your yard is surrounded by trees. Clogged gutters will lead to a saturated foundation, gutter damage, and flooded landscaping.

HGTV loves Nashville, and it seems the country can’t get enough Nashville renovations. There are shows dedicated to renovations in just the Nashville area, but even the shows that haven’t originated here still want to take advantage of the trends that have made the Nashville renovation scene so hot and competitive.
